How to connect to ftp servers using phone?

Use Solid Explorer or ES File Explorer from Play Store.

I used the file explorer but I cant connect to my pc. There is only a server option, I want to connect as client so i can copy files from my pc. thanks

Use Total Commander with the FTP plugin

I'm sure that Solid Explorer works as a client, I'm using it It's also great file managerm, maybe even the best free one.

[Q] Searching files inside the phone

Hello!
This may sound like a dumb question but how do I search for a document (pdf, doc xls...) which I know is the SD card but I don't remember where exactly?
If use the search feature, even though I remember the file name, it wont find anything, is there a plugin or another app to install to be able to search for files on the phone?
I have an Xperia Mini Pro SK17i
If you do a search in the market for Explorer. Explorer will search both the files on the phone and the files on your memory card. Explorer is a free app. The makers of Explorer also have an app call Root Explorer which has further options for rooted phones. Both are great
Thank you!
But isn't it ironic that a Master of Search like Google didn't put a simple file search feature in his OS? :-/
I use astro file manager, pretty fast
I just downloaded File Expert which is a file explorer and allows you to create an FTP or Web server on the phone to access the file via wifi. Haven't tested yet but seems pretty cool

[Q] DLNA Transfers

Hey guys,
Have any of you found a way to copy files from your PC to the tablet using DLNA? I've been able to stream and view stuff but haven't been able to copy anything over. This should be possible right?
No, DLNA does not support file transfer, only streaming media. If you want to transfer file via LAN, then use a file manager like Astro (need SMB plugin for LAN), or File Manager HD.
That's interesting. When I connect to my PS3 through DNLA (media servers) I am able to copy photos and other media to the console.
I'll try out what you recommend as well. Thanks for the help.
I'm using ES File Explorer to copy files from my PC.

Download files from computer via WiFi

As heading states I would like to know the easiest and simplest way to download files from my pc. Media files are not a problem I use allshare. I would like to be able to download rar zip apk files.
Airdroid let's you view manage and download your phones files on pc now I'm looking for something that can do that from my phone.
I know there are are servers you can set up and that but I don't want to use bandwith just a transfer through WiFi with no Internet connection required.

I use AndSMB from the play store. With AndSMB you can access Windows shares on your PC from your phone. Not sure, but is this what you are looking for?

Remote Web desktop is what you are looking for, download it from market.
Thank you for all the replies.
@Jokesy I am looking for an app that I could use so I can download files from my pc to my phone without actually touching the pc.
I think andsmb is what I'm looking for. I did some research and es file explorer also has this feature.
Could you please give me some sort guide @smilingcruel on how to set it up.
I would greatly appreciate that

Take this my friend it's work perfect
ES File Explorer has a built in FTP-Server.
It even lets you create a separate quickstart icon for the server.
You can easily access your phone through your whole LAN from any PC.
Sync'ing never was that easy :laugh:
airdroid is good; but if you want to see all files in your phone, then use droidexplorer
Guys I want to access my pc files from my phone through WiFi not the other way around.

Too complicated. Just setup a FTP server. If you contact me via PN I can send you a lightweight no-install FTP server
which you can access with your phone (e.g. with "ES File Explorer" or "AndFTP").

Already answered! Read the thread from the beginning.
Thank you everyone for your replies.
I have got both LAN shares and FTP working flawlessly with es explorer.
I don't really see the need for allshare anymore

Use ES File Explorer, ensure that folder is shared on your PC first and in ES file explorer select Local from drop down menu and hit search it should detect your PC IP address, then select it and you should be able to view the folder that you've shared.
